Christmas Eve ~ round one...

We're doing two Christmas Eve gigs tonight and round one is finished.  Over 100 people showed up for our No Rehearsal/Everyone Welcome Christmas Pageant.  And then we all crowded around the communion table.  It was mildly chaotic and a whole lotta fun.


One little girl told her momma:  can we come back here for more?  And another young momma said to me, "I have never experienced a church like this before. OMG it was so much fun!" She was stunned... so I smiled and said, "Isn't that part of the blessing of Christmas?  Joy?"  She gave me a hug and walked off smiling.  It was a great first round ~ and now we're about to practice for round two with jazz, traditional carols, folks songs for peace and a sweet new inclusive liturgy by Brian Wren.


More on the flip side...
